Juvederm Doesn't Always Work - Seattle, WA

Not Worth It
Spent: $850 in Seattle, WA

Posted 14 Aug 2011

At 54, have nasial folds, slack temples, and undereye hollowness. Effects of Juvederm only lasted 2 days for me.  If you have never tried it, I would recommend only buying one vial to help reduce the costly lesson in case it doesn't work.  Unfortunately, I bought two.

Helpful review?

My Doctor: Stella Desyatnikova, MD

My rating:

Although she could have been more forthcoming about the disappointing results, it wasn't Dr Stella's fault, and I understand that the vials are too expensive for her to offer a refund.

It didn't work for me either. One vial in upper lip and lip lines ($550) and lasted two weeks. Never again.

I believe it has a lot to do with how skilled the doctor is in administering. I have had it done by a doctor who did nothing but bruise me, absolutely no improvement. My regular plastic surgeon does an excellent job, you should see immediate, and lasting results. Keep shopping for experienced plastic (FACS) surgeons.

Hi Yours, 

You might want to check out this forum post Juvederm Lasted Less then a Week, they might have some info too. Others have mentioned this happening and found out their doctor was using really diluted product, maybe something to look into.

Thanks,

Actually I have faith in Dr Stella as competent and honest. I hardly bruised at all, which was surprising, because according to my green-spotted legs I bruise very easily. My face looked fabulous for 2 days. I guess my skin just doesn't hold hyaluronic acid. Perhaps Radiesse would work because it is a different substance.

I liked resaliyne better than Jervederm. Mine are fading and this is the 3rd week. What a waste.
